Two weekends of roof repair for Hiền, a retired bus driver in Hải Phòng
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Hải Phòng?
🇻🇳 Hải Phòng, Vietnam925 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Hải Phòng. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $680, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over a weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

thinking of you and your family, Hiền. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Yonkers.
So sorry you're going through this, Hiền. Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
hang in there, Hiền. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Odesa
Best of luck, Hiền. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Hải Phòng.
